Chapter 1 in Multirational Management, 2014, pp 1-14 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This book addresses the question as to what practices have been developed in management for organisations to be able to successfully exist in a heterogeneous, pluralist environment on a permanent basis. We create a conceptual and terminological foundation for reflections on the challenge of multiple rationalities. At the same time, we provide an overview of possible responses to, and strategies for dealing with, contradictory demands made on an organisation by its environment and by various communities of meaning within the organisation.
